Madam, please ascend.

Chapter 81 King Xian
The sky gradually brightened. Now the group was approaching the northwestern border. The temperature difference between day and night was extremely large here. When they woke up in the morning, they saw a layer of white frost on the ground.

Cui Wuming packed up the luggage in the carriage, and seeing that everyone was awake, he continued to play the role of coachman and started driving the carriage.

Crescent City is eight hundred miles ahead, but these eight hundred miles are also the most difficult part of the journey.

It was as if last night's conversation had never taken place, and everyone tacitly stopped talking about it. Cui Wuming and Luo Tong would not blame Yun Yi. They knew that Brother Yun was right. There were simply too many people who wanted to kill General Tie this time.

How can a drop of water face the turbulent waves? Any conspiracy or plot will be ineffective.

They could only take things one step at a time. If they could send Tiehong into Crescent City, that would be the best. If not, dying here wouldn't be a big deal.

Luo Tong and Cui Wuming drove side by side and laughed, "I didn't expect to have to travel the last part of the journey with a court henchman like you."

Cui Wuming laughed at himself, "We were at war a few days ago. Who could have imagined this day?"

"If you're lucky enough to survive this time, I'll treat you to a drink. You can choose any of the best restaurants in Crescent Moon Tower. It's a pity you've entered the palace, otherwise I could take you to a brothel and have some fun."

"Who says eunuchs can't go to brothels?"

Cui Wuming did not feel offended, nor was he angry, which showed that he had really put life and death aside at this moment.

Inside the carriage, Yun Yi overheard this conversation and laughed, "I used to think the spirit of the martial arts world and the immortal spirit of cultivators were incompatible, but now I feel they're actually pretty much the same. Whether a weak mortal, a warrior roaming the battlefield, or a lofty immortal, facing despair always gives rise to a sense of heroism."

Song Xinci asked back, "Don't you think it's stupid? They are ready to die here, but even so, it won't bring Tie Hong back to Crescent City."

"These people are just like that. Foolish but loyal. I know what Cui Wuming is thinking. He still hopes you can take action."

"It's not that I don't want to take action...but I can't. You should know my situation."

"Of course, so I won't let you take action. Just watch the show and recover from your injuries."

"Have you figured out a plan? If I don't help, how will you escape? Those people won't just kill Tie Hong and leave you alive."

Yun Yi smiled and said, "Give me some confidence. Since we met, when have I ever let you down?"

Song Xinci thought it was true, but she was still a little worried. She carefully felt the repair of the avenue within her body. Although she was not optimistic, if she forced herself to take action, it would not be a problem to take down the two Return to Void Realm cultivators.

However, if this is the case, I'm afraid I'll have to go into seclusion for a long time before I can recover my strength to the Hedao realm. Time waits for no one, and there's a mess waiting for me in the Sword Burial Valley.

The carriage continued on its journey for another half day. The greenery on the road became less and less, replaced by golden sand.

At this time, Yun Yi's ears moved slightly, and he stuck his head out of the car window. Sure enough, he saw several huge shadows flying across the sky.

They were several enormous "vultures," ferocious beasts with Qi Refining strength, capable of competing with the horses. The leader was exceptionally powerful, its body coated in a dark purple hue, faintly shimmering with lightning, clearly possessing a higher level of cultivation.

As soon as the eagle appeared, the two Feiyun horses lost their composure and stopped moving forward. No matter how Cui Wuming tried to drive them away, it was useless.

Seeing this, Luo Tong took the initiative to get off the carriage and comforted the two horses. He was born on the battlefield and was very close to horses.

The eagles loomed like a dark cloud, covering the crowd's heads. Meanwhile, several streaks of light approached from afar, clearly the result of cultivators riding magical weapons. However, these individuals were clearly not of the same ilk as those on the eagles.

For a moment, even the edge of the vast and empty desert became a little crowded.

The people on the eagle appeared first. The leader strode with his head held high, wearing a robe embroidered with golden dragon patterns, and his attire was extremely expensive.

As soon as Song Xinci saw this person, he took the initiative to hide his figure. Yun Yi immediately understood that this person should be Prince Xian Su Xin.

Cui Wuming bowed and said respectfully, "This humble servant greets His Majesty Prince Xian."

Su Xin was young, but his manners were quite graceful. He gave him a slight support and said, "Is the general here?"

"Your Highness, the guilty minister Tie Hong is in the carriage." "Oh?" Su Xin turned and said towards the carriage, "I, the prince, have something to say to the general. I wonder if the general would give me a favor."

Tie Hong's voice came from it: "What is there for me and King Xian to talk about? Let's not talk about it."

The next moment, the woman following behind Su Xin waved her hand lightly, and a purple lightning fell instantly, tearing the carriage into pieces and revealing Tie Hong inside.

Su Xin scolded, "Tingni, how can you be so reckless?"

The woman named Tingni bowed and said, "I'm sorry." Although she said this, there was no trace of apology on her face.

Seeing this, Yun Yi couldn't help but ask softly, "This King Xian seems to be a talented and romantic man. Is he usually so high-profile in the Burial Sword Valley?"

Song Xinci shook her head: "I have never seen that person in the Return to Void Realm, otherwise I would have an impression of him."

The Return to Void Realm she mentioned was naturally Ting Ni.

The woman looked young, but people who practice cultivation have a constant appearance, so it was impossible to tell her exact age.

The carriage that Yun Yi and Song Xinci were in had been tampered with in advance, so people outside could not notice the movement inside, but Ting Ni suddenly turned her head and looked over, obviously very suspicious about what was in the carriage.

Cui Wuming said: "The people here have nothing to do with Tie Hong."

King Xian shook his head and said, "Since you're here, how can it be unrelated?"

After saying that, Tingni used the same trick again, and purple lightning fell, but this time the carriage did not move at all, as solid as a rock.

Seeing this, Yun Yi put the Fangyuan Sword into the Xumi Ring. Now that he has reached the late stage of Qi Refining Realm, he can do this.

Then he opened the curtain, stepped out of the carriage, and said with a smile, "Young lady, your thunder technique is indeed powerful, but you also have a really bad temper."

Ting Ni squinted her eyes and looked into the carriage, which was empty. Little did she know that Song Xinci had already disappeared. Unless one got closer and looked carefully, it would be difficult to sense her presence with the naked eye or the mind.

King Xian was more interested in this unfamiliar man. "Haven't you asked for advice yet?"

Yun Yi did not bow, but kept a distance from him, saying casually, "A mere casual cultivator is not worth mentioning."

"You're actually a cultivator. In that sense, you can be considered a close friend."

"No, no, the King has a great appetite, he wants to eat anything, raw or cold. Unlike me, who can only eat soft rice."

The two of them were exchanging witticisms indifferently. At this time, several figures in the air fell down, and they formed a siege with the vultures, surrounding Tie Hong and others.

"You Da Xia people always speak in a flowery manner. Can't you be more straightforward?" The person who spoke was another Return to Void Realm.

He directly revealed his identity: "Da Yan Shan Changqing, I have longed for Da Xia Tie Hong, and I would like to invite the general to visit me!"

King Xian shook his head and said, "That won't do. General Tie is the treasure of Great Xia. How can I give him away?"

"Haha, you're still lying to me! Everyone knows that your emperor has blocked Tie Hong's cultivation and is eager to send him back to Crescent City in a prison cart!"

"That's also my Daxia family affair."

"Bah! I hate to see heroes being bullied when they're down and out. How does that saying go..."

Yun Yi added: "A tiger in troubled waters is bullied by a dog."

Shan Changqing praised: "That's right, it's like a tiger in plain land being bullied by a dog."
